My ROOM...

About Me i’m elizabeth o’reilly, 30, and i live in cambridgeshire with my partner, Helio flores Santos, 34, and our son, Helio, 2. we bought our three-bed semi two years ago and have been decorating it ever since.

My challenge the hall was the last project on our list, and having invested in the bathroom and kitchen, plus new windows and doors, we didn’t have much in our budget. also, i was intent on fitting in a cloakroom.

My wish list i wanted a light, bright and welcoming entrance that would reflect the rest of our modernised home, and also provide us with a much-needed second loo. the space had to have character, as well as practical finishes and ample storage.
